Japan — Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism

What the ministry says is wrong

農耕トラクタのリヤアクスルシャフトにおいて、シャフトの熱処理が不適切なため、圃場の作業時等の高負荷時にシャフトに亀裂が生じることがある。 そのため、そのままの状態で使用を続けると亀裂が進展し、最悪の場合、シャフトが折損して走行不能となるおそれがある。

What is to be done about it

全車両、リヤアクスルシャフトを対策品に交換する。

The two passages above are quoted in Japanese because that is the language the ministry published them in. This site keeps the wording a register had when it was read, and does not translate a safety notice.

This site gathered the record, grouped it by notification number and set it in English around the ministry's own words; the notice itself is unaltered.
